Another week and another record set for the S&P 500 which is having a strong 2021 so far. A new president is in the White House and stocks continue to fly as our scanners are signalling plenty of investing opportunities.
Since the breakout of the September to November consolidation zone, price has now climbed a healthy 7.4% and still rising.
With the 20 simple moving average being the main source of support at the moment, we can see a strong linear trend is in play and we want the trend to continue on its smooth journey up towards the $4000 round number.
Within the S&P, the Information Technology sector is starting to shine once again and is continuing the momentum from the impulsive growth we experienced during the peak of the global pandemic last year.
As the weeks and months go by we want to see the pattern of higher highs and higher lows remain as the norm and this will result in more and more opportunities appearing in our portfolio.
